Early Max Level

I have found that I will be level 65 before the end of Marleybone and I just wanted to ask everyone's opinion on what I should do when that happens. Should I continue on with doing the storyline and sidequests? or should I wait until the next update?, or maybe just do storyline quests?

There are different schools of thought here. While the gurus at KingsIsle always make sure we have enough Xp in our quests to get through a world (hence you reaching 65 in Marleybone, as I have too) I don't like to "waste" my Xp even though I know it won't be needed to get me to the next level cap it DOES make my pirate stronger and more powerful when I DO get to the tougher areas. I finished the story line with my privateer mainly because I just had to see how the story played out. Now when the new areas open she will be a the strength and level of a 65. My other pirates I had wait. Those that maxed out in Marleybone will be MUCH stronger and higher leveled when they get to the new areas and will thus have a bit easier time going through. I proved this theory when my level 50's went through Marleybone and those that had not maxed out in Mooshu had a much easier time through both Marleybone and Aquila. So, although you don't actually need to worry about wasting that xp and questing without getting that Xp bonus, it sure has many benefits when you do become frugal with your Xp.

I say finish the storyline and then pick another class to work on (Unless you already used your 6 character slots)

The same thing happened to me I was on Rooke's ship then I completed a quest in that dungeon and then I was level 65 I didn't even have Catbeard on my crew.

I think you should just continue on with the storyline. Each update there is always enough experience to get to the max level, and while a higher level does help to me it wouldn't be a necessity. You could always do the main quest and save the side quests for extra experience.
